Title:

DevOps / Automation Engineer - Install Automation & CI/CD New Jersey - Onsite Full description: About the role: You will design and implement reliable, idempotent automation and CI/CD pipelines to ensure approved repository packages are securely retrieved, validated, and installed on target Linux servers (PMUL/Cybersphere). Collaborate with security, release, and operations teams to meet audit/compliance requirements.

Key responsibilities:

Build CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins) that fetch approved artifacts, verify integrity, install packages, and run post-install validations. Develop idempotent install automation (Ansible preferred) that supports install/upgrade/uninstall and rollback. Integrate with internal artifact repositories and implement checksum/signature verification. Implement secure secrets handling (Jenkins credentials / Vault), mutual TLS or token auth for repo access, and detailed audit logging. Add automated smoke tests, health checks, and monitoring/alerts for install outcomes and configuration drift. Document runbooks, rollback procedures, and pipeline design; provide knowledge transfer to ops teams. Ensure solutions comply with enterprise change controls and security policies.

Required qualifications:

6+ years engineering experience with 4+ years in DevOps/SRE/automation roles (senior level). Strong Linux administration (RHEL/CentOS/Ubuntu) and package management (rpm/yum, dpkg/apt). Hands-on experience with Ansible (preferred) or Chef/Puppet and with writing idempotent automation. Proficient in Jenkins pipeline development (Jenkinsfile, shared libraries) and CI/CD concepts. Experience with artifact stores (Artifactory/Nexus) and secure artifact retrieval practices.

Scripting:

Python and Bash; familiarity with shell tooling and unit-testable scripts. Experience with secrets management (HashiCorp Vault, cloud KMS) and secure credential usage in pipelines. Good knowledge of networking, SSH, firewalls, and access controls; strong documentation skills. Experience working in regulated/compliant environments is strongly preferred.

Preferred:

Direct experience integrating with internal enterprise repos or PMUL/Cybersphere-like platforms. Familiarity with signing artifacts (GPG), checksum verification, and binary provenance. Terraform or cloud IaC experience; container orchestration (Docker/Kubernetes) a plus. Experience with ServiceNow/ITSM integration and change-control workflows.
